When the restaurant first opened, Hu Luanfei had kept a trick up her sleeve, and now she had to go to the palace to meet Xuanyuan Li.

When going into the palace, one must bring one more person. Recently, Le Yao has been aggressively pursuing Jiang Yi for a while, and no one knows how the progress is. In order to avoid disturbing her good things, Hu Luanfei wrote a letter to Jiang Shi, asking him to run to the embankment and give it to Le Yao.

Just as I was about to go out, I ran into Le Yao who was walking back angrily. I haven't seen her for a long time. She has grown a lot taller and thinner.

"Le..." Hu Luanfei had just blurted out the word "Le" when Le Yao rushed over and hugged her.

Due to the impact of gravity, Hu Luanfei was forced to take two or three steps back, and he could only stand firmly with his back touching the wall.

"My queen, you have to make the decision for me." Le Yao's voice was choked with sobs. Her eyes were red and tears kept flowing down.

Hu Luanfei's troubled mind suddenly shut down, buzzing and blank, "Did Jiang Yi bully you?"

Le Yao nodded, "He said, he said he doesn't like little girls!"

"Didn't you get along well before?" Hu Luanfei lowered his voice, a little confused.

"Last night, he and I drank a little..." Le Yao sobbed, "I wanted to use the alcohol to do something bad, but I didn't expect him to go practice swordplay... He also said that he had someone in his heart and didn't like a little girl."

"You can't do this." Hu Luanfei was extremely dissatisfied with Le Yao's approach. "Girls should be reserved and don't do things that will bring down your status."

"I don't want to either. Seeing that all my good friends have families, but I don't..."

"Wait!" Hu Luanfei interrupted her and rubbed the tip of his nose which was chilled by the wind. "You are too anxious. Calm down and accompany me to the palace."

……

Sitting in the carriage, Le Yao was still crying. Hu Luanfei coaxed her and the child at the same time, and told her a lot of examples of not using despicable means to force people to submit.

Le Yao lowered her head and stopped crying. The tears that were about to fall were still lingering on the edge of her eyes. She stretched out her hand and wiped away the tears fiercely, as if she had made a big decision or thought it through. She choked and said, "I understand. Since he doesn't like me, I won't force him. When I really let him go, I will go back to see him and thank him for saving my life."

"No, why are you so negative?" Hu Luanfei gently brushed the hair behind her ears and said softly, "I mean you should give each other some space and see if he has come to his senses during the time you are away from him. I think Jiang Yi is interested in you, but because of his age, he doesn't dare to face this relationship easily."

"Does he think I'm too young?" Le Yao stared with her watery eyes and muttered unconvincedly: "Just because I was born a few years later doesn't mean I won't get older. Why is he nitpicking about this?"

Hu Luanfei was amused by her innocent behavior, "I think he despises himself for being old and unworthy of a mischievous girl like you."

Le Yao turned around and glanced at Hu Luanfei: "Do you think I'm naughty too?"

"No, I think you are quite innocent and lively like this."

Le Yao was about to speak when the carriage stopped abruptly. As before, Xuanyuan Yuchuan had been waiting outside the palace gate. Just as she got off the carriage and met Xuanyuan Yuchuan, a man walked out of the palace gate. The man walked from a distance with an arrogant look on his face.

This scene seems familiar.

The person walked closer and symbolically saluted Xuanyuan Yuchuan. As the Princess of War, Hu Luanfei merely nodded to the visitor.

Nalan Qi lowered his eyes and stared at the little baby in Hu Luanfei's arms, saying: "This is my first time meeting the prince. I came so suddenly that I didn't prepare any gifts. I hope Princess Zhan won't blame me. This general wishes the little prince good health and success in everything."

The tone of his voice was full of apology, catching her off guard. She thought Nalan Qi would say something as arrogant as he did the last time they met, but she didn't expect him to be so modest in front of the child, which really scared her. She even stuttered when she replied, "No, no, a kind word from you is worth a million gifts. Um...thank you, thank you, General Nalan, for your kind words."

"You're welcome." When looking at Xuanyuan Yuchuan, Nalan Qi's facial expression changed completely. He returned to his arrogant attitude and left hastily.

"Nalan Qi is now highly valued by our father. The road ahead may be much more difficult." Xuanyuan Yuchuan's voice was flat and even a little low.

Hu Luanfei quickly suppressed his expression, looked at Nalan Qi who was gradually walking away, and sighed: "Apart from the facts, Nalan Qi is a rare military commander."

"It's really good." Xuanyuan Yuchuan sighed: "Unfortunately, he is on the side of the third brother."

In the current situation, Xuanyuan Yuchuan can be described as "isolated and helpless". There are many officials on his side in the court, but most of them are civil officials, and military officials account for a minority. They are all rookies who have just established their foothold in the court. For veterans like Nalan Qi, those new military generals are simply not a big deal.

"If he can support you, then the throne will be yours."

Xuanyuan Yuchuan laughed at himself: "It's impossible even if the sky falls."

The two chatted about personal matters, and suddenly talked about Concubine De. Xuanyuan Yuchuan inexplicably blurted out, "Concubine De used to be childhood sweethearts with Nalan Qi..."

Hu Luanfei staggered, and Xuanyuan Yuchuan quickly steadied her, "You're holding the child, watch the road carefully."

Hu Luanfei's heart was pounding. After trying to calm himself down, he joked, "Don't you feel sorry for Xuanyuan Li?"

Xuanyuan Yuchuan chuckled: "He has so many women in his harem, one today and another tomorrow, aren't those women pitiful?"

As they were talking, they had already arrived at the Yangxin Palace.

When Xiao Lanzi, who was guarding outside the door, saw the two people, especially Hu Luanfei, he felt relieved, but his mouth pouty and tears came.

"Have you been wronged?" Hu Luanfei asked.

Xiao Lanzi sniffed, turned her back to wipe her tears, and when she was no longer in pain, she turned back to face the two of them, "I am so happy that I am crying. I am happier than anything else to see that the young master is safe."

When Xuanyuan Yuchuan saw Xiaolanzi's red eyes from crying, he frowned silently.

Hu Luanfei tilted his head, not understanding Xuanyuan Yuchuan's emotions at the moment. He then saw Xiao Lanzi look at Xuanyuan Yuchuan and then lower her head hastily, and her ears turned red...

The more Xuanyuan Yuchuan stared at him, the more he lowered his head and even made a cautious move to step back.

"If you step back any further, you'll hit the pillar." Xuanyuan Yuchuan's voice was cold, but there was a hint of doting in it for no reason.

Hu Luanfei looked towards Xuanyuan Yuchuan suddenly, her eyes wide open in disbelief. For a moment, she saw a smile in Xuanyuan Yuchuan's eyes...
